Day 1
I left Omro in my blue mustang convertible. The leaves are changing color and falling off the trees. I have to drive for two days to get to Concord, New Hampshire. I went on a walking tour of downtown. The State House had a beautiful gold dome. Next, went walked along the Merrimack River and watched the ducks landing in the water. Then I got in my car and drove to Shaker Village. I felt really hungry when I got there, so I went to the Shack Box Lunch. I got a sandwich with a soup. It was very good. I took a tour of the Villag .There were old buildings that showed how they lived years ago. After I went on the hayrite tour and saw a beautiful flower garden. Type in the content of your page here.

Day 2
When I got to the Dog Sled Derby I saw six dogs on the sleds. The race was six miles long. Then the sledders took off. Number 4 took the lead and won the race. I saw a purple finch next to a white birch tree. They are the state bird and tree. I learned that they didn’t hold the races during World War II. It was really cold so I got some hot chocolate.

Day 3
When I got to Hanover Ice Sculptures I saw a cool ice castle. It had all the flags on it. It was as big as a house. Then I saw some kids skiing nearby. Then I learned that Hanover has the largest ice skating event in all the New England states. Some skaters danced and others were racing around the rink. Then I saw a white tailed deer running into the woods. It’s the state animal.

Day 4
When I was at Old Man of the Mountain I saw the state bird, the purple finch. Then I looked at Old man of the Mountain. It was covered with snow, I could hardly see it. All I saw was snow. I saw the Profile Lake. Then I learned that Old Man of the Mountain fell down in 2003. I saw the state fish called a Brook Trout jump out of the water. I had a sack lunch so I sat nest to a tree and ate. It was a White Birch tree, my state tree.

Day 5
When I got to Franconia Notch State Park, I hiked up the Appalachian Trail. It was really cold. I had to wear a thick jacket. I saw pine trees. I was starting to feel tired because hiking in the mountains takes a long time. Then I went to the aerial tramway and took a ride across the mountains. Below me was Echo Lake. I was a little bit scared because it was so high.

Day 6
When I got to Mount Washington I saw the state tree which is a white birch. I saw a lot of snow. It was covering all the trees. I learned this was the highest point in the state.

Day 7
When I got to Waterville Valley I saw the lake frozen solid. People were skating on it. Then I saw people skiing down the hill and trying to go across the water. The water sprayed into the air. Other people were skating very, very fast down the mountain. Number 5 had the fastest time. He moved from side to side really fast. It was 1:00 in the afternoon, so I got in my car and I headed towards Portsmouth to my motel

Day 8
When I got to Portsmouth I saw the state flower, which is the purple lilac. Then I went into the William Pitt Tavern to the meeting room on the third floor. It also has chimneys at each end of the building. The Masonic Lodge started here which is home to the Portsmouth Flying Stage Coach.
